Liquor VS.. The People.

We have seen and carefully read
the address of Geo. S. Kinney.
President of the State Protective
Association of Liquor Dealers, to
the people Of Tennessee. 1t bears
upon its face the stamp of misrep.
resentation. In the first sentence
it says: "a bill was passed March
Z, 1887, by the General Assembly
OF the State of Tennessee submit
ting to vote of the people on the
last Thursday in September, 1887,
for their ratification or rejection,
an amendment to the Constitution
of the State prohibiting the manu-
facture and sale of whisky, brandy,
ale, beer, and wine. The amend.
ment reads: "No person shall man.
ufacture for sale'or sell or keep for
sale, as beverage, any intoxicat-
ing liquors whatever including
wine, ale and beer"
If the amendment read or infer
red what Mr.. Kinney says it does;
that is, to prevent the manufact-
ure or sale for any purpose in
toxicating liquor of all kinds, then
we would oppose the amendment,
but such is not the case. Any
one can see at a glance by read
the amendment as quoted, word
for word, that liquors can be man.
ufactured and sold in the State
for mechanical an d medicinal
purposes.
The only claim made by Mr..
Kinney that bears a mark of cor
rectness is that the liquor dealers
pay nearly 40 per cent. Of the
States revenue. This perhaps is
true, but it is also true that NO
statistician, however biased to
whisky places the per cent. OF
crime caused by whisky at less
than seventy five, and three
fOurths Of the amount paid fol-
criminal prosecutions about doub
les the amount received from al
the whisky dealers in the State. Il
the cost of criminal prosecutions
can be reduced three-fourths thel
it seems to us that the State Cal
lose the As per cent. derived from
the sale of liquor and have more
revenue than she new has.

That is to say, your lungs. Also

Very wonderful machinery it is.
Not only the larges air-passages,
but the thousands of little tubes
and cavities leading from them.
When these are clogged and
choked with matter which ought
not to be there, your lungs cannot
half do their work. And what
they do, they cannot do well.
Call it Cold, cough, pneumonia

guarantee of good faith.
East Side Levee.
EDITORS HERALD: The truth is al
ways bitter, and Mr.. Burlipgame feels
it. know more about the plans and
speci cations than the great contractor
himself; SO do all the reading and
thinking property-holders, as all are
interested. Burlingame has had six
different foremen, each of whom con-
demned the doings of his predecessor.
Now, if they received their instruc-
tons from Mr.. Burlingame, and fol-
lowed them, they could not all be
wrong, since Mr.. B. understands his
contract and its requirements. Be-
sides, it was question of wages with
the foremen, and not one Of in
competency, that caused them to re-
sign. The last must be the only right
man, according to the latest instruc-
ton.
How is this, Mr.. Burlingame ?
Don't blame the men; be honest, and
say you did not know how to instruct
them. The public in general have
confidence in Inspector Mulholand,
and believe he will not shake with
you over the scheme. Yours,

vicinity from throwing their garbage
there. A new depot was recon-
mended, and will be constructed at

will be handsomely constructed, and
will be for both passengers and freight.

A PROSPEROUS RAILROAD.

The Immense Business of the
AtchisOn, Topeka & Santa Fe.
The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
system has become SO immense and
its lines ramify so extensively through
the southwest that its statement OF
earnings is taken by many as indicat-
ing the comparative condition OF rail-
way business in the west. Those who
are seeking to depress the stock mar
ket for selfish purposes seize with
avidity any indication of falling off
Of earnings, but they can find very
little comfort from the Atchison's
statement. Notwithstanding the par
tial failure of the crops in portions Of
the country penetrated by it's lines,
the earnings of the Atchison and
Southern Kansas roads for September
show an increase of 100000. The
operating expenses show an increase
Of $165 600, which is doubtless due in
part to the taking in of newly COM
pleted extensions in Kansas that OF
course are not expected to earn their
expenses at the outset. The returns
for the nine months ending with Sep
TENDER, however, are anything but
encouraging to the bears. With an in
crease Of only los miles. compared
with last year, the gross earnings show
an increase of no less than 81, 5S1 ,499.
and in spite of the large increase Of
operating expenses, which was to be
expected, the net earnings have in
creased no less than 81, 1877 ,29+,
amounting for the nine months to
$6,232,374. The main lines of this
system are now crowded with an inn
mense business, the transcontinental
freight and passenger traffic especially
being extraordinary large. The newl.
completed lines will soon be in pro-
ductive operation and the property
has been brought into such excellen
physical condition that expenses car
easily be kept down if considered de
sirable. Meantime rates are beins
well maintained by this company ant
and its competitors and there is NJ
probability that the completion of thu
Atchison's line to Chicago will be al
lowed to cause any rate cutting. Tn,
efforts of the bear clique to breal
down the prices of this and othe
dividend paying stocks will not b.
successful in the long rum Railwa,
Age.
